If you float tested the nuts before stratifying, I bet the other 15 will pop. We had almost 100% germination with our Chinese/Hybrids this year.
660s- if the starting issue means that they’re tough to pull over without the decomp pushed in, then yes- they’re 92cc and take a bit to pull. If...
Meteor pistons are outstanding. Meteor cylinders may be decent (depending on production runs). The Farmertec handle will eventually bend if you...
MasterMech has a hell of a thread on here or the other site about this model. He rebuilt two of them back in the day. Check ‘em out when ya can.
The 13-21 Farmertech tanks are very good. I’ve had success with 1122s, 1128s (440 x2) and 1125s. Their prices have increased but I don’t know...
Naaa, you should split that case and replace the bearings as MasterMech stated. Here’s why- 1128s in the 77cc class are already “under-bearing-ed”...
Case temps- Lots of opinions on this, but I’ll say what works for me. I use a dedicated toaster oven set to 350deg. I flip the case many times...
I’ve dinged up a case like that while pulling in the crankshaft and not watching the rod. On Stihls, I always pull the clutch side through first....
Depending on the stock and manufacture date, maybe. I would double check with the distributor and/or verify with someone who has recently ordered...
Decent Husky dealers will probably have those seals in stock. OEM or Nachi (or other name brand) C3 6202 bearings are the way to go. New cranks...
Yep, the dings are fine unless chips break off. I’ve built many saws with case damage worse than that and have had no issues. Yes to sanding and...
Yes, and takes conventional 6202 bearings.
Those nuts that didn’t sprout may still be viable if they passed the float test last fall. We sometimes have delayed radical growth.
Yes, but that Tillotson tunes well if working properly. I’ve been into 1118s a few times and didn’t notice a difference in the wood. These saws...
028 aftermarket carbs are “okay” in that they run better than other series. I’d rebuild that Tillotson proper before leak testing anything. You...
I would replace that brake band. Metal fatigue is very real and that brake needs to work properly with a 92cc saw in a bucket or in the hands of a...
Yes, but not 1118 series. 1125 and 1122 had different clutch washers that corresponded to different clutch keepers around the “hub.” If an older...
Dust, maybe. I’m not totally sure on that. My 064s had the same problem. 1122s are bullet-proof saws that will probably go down as one of Stihl’s...
Yep, business card is fine. Check the poly flywheel for any high spots near the magnets. Make sure it clears everything and doesn’t hit the...
That clear silicone substance is an adhesive Stihl sometimes used on the two-piece carb housing/tanks from 1122 series and others. Decades of fuel...
